Take Care Of Yourself (R-E)

There are things that you have no control of
There are times there's nothing you can do
There are moments where you might get broadsided
And find
You just have to play things through
But at those times where you're not feeling right
Or you're not in sync with everything else
Hey, don't you wait
Or hesitate
To take care of yourself

It's easy to get caught up in another person's life
Who thinks their problems are more important than yours
It's natural to focus your efforts in helping them
And get lost in your giving chores
Hey, but you can't keep ignoring the pain you disregard
Thinking it's okay, you're helping someone else
Hey, don't you fall apart
Because of your good heart
Hey, take care of yourself

The world will always have an unquenchable need
For special people like you to be out there
But how can you be of help to anybody else
If you end up always in need of repair

As you go about your day with your silent pain
As some don't know, others will never care
For them, their only want is to get their needs met
To go through their day and go from there
It's not selfish for you to want to feel well
And not end up, broken on some lonely shelf
No
I need you to be
Happy and here with me
So take care of yourself
